They need to dump Jadeja and add Harshit Rana.  Bumrah is out of CT if reports are true.

Then, imo, they should add Rana and another pacer.  4 spinners is a joke.  Even in the Caribbean, Chahal was a complete waste of a spot in the squad. 

 

Even if it's a domestic guy like Anshul Kamboj, it's fine

No he didn't, because as multiple posts have pointed out, he is being over ruled by agarkar and rohit every time.  No coach can do anything under the circumstances 

 

How does this even make sense ? Apparently Gambhir had enough influence to drop Rohit, the all powerful captain per you,  from  in the 5th test but according to you he is a helpless bystander when it comes to other decisions.

Your argument is basically that Gambhir is just a common person occupying the coach slot and nothing can be expected from him because all decisions are made by Agarkar and Rohit.

In the England series, the question will be on No. of batsman vs no. of allrounders vs no of bowlers. Who is going to do these roles is yet in the air. Everybody knows the superstar Top 3 and the 2 veteran all-rounders will play.

 

In the T20 series, Surya played 3 batsmen, 4 all-rounders, 3 bowlers consistently (Batting up to No. 8, 7 bowling options)

In ODIs, in the WC we saw 5 batsmen, 1 all rounder, and 4 bowlers (Batting up to No. 7, 5 bowling options)

 

Hardik is back and having 5 batters was unusual, so ODI team will have 4 batsman, 2 all-rounders, and 4 bowlers. This ensures they have 6 bowling options.

Team: Rohit, Virat, Gill, Shreyas, WK, Jadeja, Hardik, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep, Shami, Kuldeep Yadav

 

If they want to bat till No. 8, they replace a bowler (Kuldeep) for an allrounder (Axar or Washy): 4 batsman, 3 all-rounders, and 3 bowlers.

Team: Rohit, Virat, Gill, Shreyas, WK, Jadeja, Hardik, Axar Patel, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep, Shami

 

If they want seven bowling options, they replace the No. 4 batter (Shreyas) for an allrounder (Washy): 3 batsman, 4 all-rounders, and 3 bowlers.

Team: Rohit, Virat, Gill, WK, Washy, Jadeja, Hardik, Axar Patel, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep, Shami

 

I prefer the last one, exactly like the T20 team!

Our team needs a good pitch inspector.. infact bcci should advertise for this role and pay that guy good amount of money. You then go with 4-1-2-4 or 4-1-1-5 combination factoring  the inspector's advise. You don't pick chahal in rainy conditions sf19 or spinners in bengaluru test

That’s actually a great observation. A pitch inspector would help them select which XI to choose. If India had 7 allrounders, the XI wouldn’t have to change.

What do you feel about Aggy. Is he common man occupying space that he kept choosing fatty and lulli. Btw how many coaches drop captains from playing xi, what you expect is though aggg keep picking these useless captain in squad it’s Gambhir duty to not play him in xi. These kind of fancy wishes fulfilled in dream.

Who nd all watching star sports special show “Unstoppable Ro-Ko”  for CT. Some of the most respected and goat orators Akash Chopra ji, Piyush Chwala ji is explaining why Ro-ko are so great. Such a lovely show guys please hop in to star cricket in case you are watching boring Delhi elections result.

 

Both are 2 bachchon ke baap, that itself makes them legends :hatsoff:

Since ROKO will play and Gill is next in line. I am not sure Jaiswal will get an opportunity. It's tragic that he can't play. 

 

They should include a left hander at top and move Others around. Jaiswal should be a regular. drop whoever you need to. 

 

Rohit 

Jaiswal 

Kohli / Gill

Iyer /Gill

Pant 

Hardik 

Axar

Jaddu / Kuldeep

Rana

Shami 

Arshdeep / Varun

 

I am not sure they will play 3 fast bowlers with Hardik as an option.

Why is deadline for "fitness". This is ridiculous. You have not even tested him after his return. What kind of fitness test that will pass Bumrah? This is not an important tournament. India should just send fresh new legs to the tournament. Rana, Arshdeep, Kamboj or anyone else. Heck even Siraj. 

its all natak,i think he was never going to play in CT.

The thing about this delay is we don't know who is going to replace him. Hope they communicated that to the person they have in mind. By now everything should be finalized.
